Brighton have a few new injuries to contend with ahead of their clash with Cardiff City including Alireza Jahanbakhsh.

First team midfielders Pascal Gross and Davy Propper have missed a number of games and will again be absent on Saturday although Gross is training and Propper will be back on the training field with the squad on Monday. Alireza Jahanbakhsh picked up a strain in the defeat to Everton last weekend and has been unable to train since then, with manager Chris Hughton rating him as a "doubt". Sub 'keeper David Button is also still injured. Hughton will hope the Seagulls can bounce back to winning ways after the defeat in GW11 before the international break sees many of his stars jet off.

The Iranian international caps off an impressive summer at the World Cup with a £17 million transfer to Brighton that will keep him on the south coast through the summer of 2023. Jahanbakhsh will be an appealing option for fantasy managers (already priced at £7.0 in FPL.com's original format) after topping the Dutch Eredivisie with 21 goals last season. Said the 24-year-old: I’m really delighted to sign for the club. I was really looking forward to being here, seeing the facilities and the people here. It’s been a long process to get here, with some busy days deciding where to go, but I’m finally here and very happy about my decision." Jul 27 - 1:07 PM
